Small update today. I had to swap hoists for my engine since I borrowed the blue one and its owner wanted it back. I decided to search for a used one and found the red one below. I discovered the existence of what they call an engine leveler which is a very simple device, but very useful since I can adjust the pitch angle of the engine with it. You can see it between the engine in the hoist hook on the second picture. This is going to help a lot the day I'll put the engine back on the fuse.
I haven't posted a lost in the last months, but I'm still working on many different things on the airplane. Among them are the elevator flight controls and new fuselage access panels. I'll post updates here once I have full stories ready!
Big thanks to my father Victor who helped me swapping hoists. Thanks also to Pierre who let me use his hoist for such a long time.
